Frustrated Fan!!

Let me clarify. Kentucky is definitely on a roll. 47 straight wins at Rupp is amazing. A definite Number 1 ranking is also amazing. What's not? The lack of credit West of the Mississippi. I know that we aren't in the heart of basketball country here in Utah, but I get nothing as far as UK news. And for a Number 1 team, that's unacceptable.
I've grew up in Utah but my mother and grandparents are from Kentucky. I've bled blue and white since at least 1996, the first time I remember seeing the Cats play. Ever since then, I've been hooked. Luckily, CBS and ESPN have been doing a phenomenal job of broadcasting the games for us fans who aren't so close. Kudos to them.
The one thing I can't stand is local media here. When Jimmer was dominating college basketball, you wouldn't go 5 minutes without hearing his name on every sports (or otherwise) station we had. Anthony Davis has been putting up record numbers (aka passing Shaq on all-time freshman block list) but I've yet to hear his name anywhere locally. I know I'm definitely in the minority but it does get frustrating.
I'm reaching out to you, Big Blue Nation. Tell me where to go to get my Wildcat fix. I need UK hoops to keep me going now that football is over. I'm looking for the best information I can get on anything UK, from analysis to recruiting. Because I sure can't get that here.
Feel free to follow me on twitter, hit me up with any info you have!!

you can go there and get WLAP on your smartphone to listen to the pregame show, play-by-play and postgame wrap-up. Logging in to ASoB and listening to the radio is how I get my fix when I’m stuck at work :)

Almost daily, Glenn has all kinds of links for great information about all things blue. You will find some of the most knowledgeable FACTS and news going on about the Cats combined with some great knowledgeable fans that share other links. If you want Cat news, this is the site.

Love this site!
I “stalked” it all last basketball season before joining during the tourney. The posts are insightful and well written. The comments downright hilarious some days. You can agree to disagree and not be bannished. Best of all everyone is so NICE!
As others have said
This is the best place to find all of the news UK. I check the site at least once a day, and on the rare occasion I get to join in for the live game threads, it’s ALMOST as good as being back in the bluegrass.
I’m in Chicago, so I feel your pain. They don’t report on college basketball unless it’s the Big Ten and unless it’s March (except when UK messes up….THEN it makes news).
You can put it on the board....YES.
